Add --early-fixup and --late-fixup to bisect.pl, for user-controlled patching.

These provide a way to run code or to conditionally or unconditionally
apply patches for each revision tested during git bisect. This is very
useful when for the commit range, operating system and configuration options
tested, the behaviour otherwise would be to fail to build for a wide range
of revisions, and hence the bisect would finish without finding culprit
commit due to getting bogged down in 'skipped' revisions.
